    I do the same thing - damp brush. Works like a champ.

    We've done very well here. The town has a "Acton 2020" plan, and it'll be interesting to see what it looks like at the end of 2020.

    I gently squeeze the remaining lather from the brush and apply that to my face (usually) while I start to police my area. I say *usually* , because that depend on the soap. Some soaps, such as Grooming Dept., Wholly Kaw, etc. are darn near cosmetic products, and do wonders for moisturizing post shave feel. Even still...it gets rinsed off my face and down the drain.

    The brush is dry when I loaded the Cryogen, but I wet the face before I lather with the dry brush or I wet the tips of the brush and lather on a dry face.

    I'll have to look up where that is, but the name certainly sounds Indian :). Acton, as your mom might remember, has a diverse population.

    Thank you Joe, you do the same. I'll be interested in your Cryogen review.

    Good morning, fellas! Decided to go with a Micromatic Monday, along with one of my favorite scents.
    Drama free, Ridiculously Awesome Shave. Smellin' like a rose.

    I'll ask, but I'm sure it wasn't as diverse in 1970 as it is now.

    :thanks:

    @Primotenore
    I like the fragrance.
    Actually it's AdP Colonia Assoluta.

    The others are inspired to another model.

    For me, I'm more into tech side of the soap.
    Because of my dermatitis, and my job of pharmacist.
    FWIK, Stirling is better than RazoRock.
    For sure this is another level.

    I'm doing a test right now on SV, and I've just started sharing info.

    Thank you, Andrew! I'm pretty certain it's a CVS carbon blade. They're very good blades. Nice and smooth right outta the gate.
